Marathon

When will the Marathon shops be posted? In my area, they have only posted one.

They were posted here a couple days ago, but now there are only a few on the board. I don't know why.
I haven't seen any yet. Unless I missed them, but I've been checking pretty steadily.
They greatly reduced the number of locations being shopped with the current MSC. A few popped up on another MSC site, with better pay.
May I have a hint on the other MSC? Thanks

Bingo! Just found them all posted where they were last round.
Are these Marathon shops worth completing for $10? I haven't ever done one at Marathon and I was wondering if it's worth it. Thanks.
Probably not, but I find most of them pretty quick and easy. So with a whole area of them it works for me.
I wouldn't do them for $10, but I do them for $15 if they're local.
How many can you do in a day? The shop doesn't give you much information unless you assign it.
From a shopper perspective, It depends how close they are in distance to each other, how well they're maintained and connectivity. A real time saver, to me, is not having to waste time getting a miniscule amount of gas at a pump.
From the Sassie perspective, you can only assign ten per day. The workaround, if you're aiming for more than ten, is schedule the first ten for the last day of the window, planning to shop earlier, then schedule more for the sooner day you plan to shop. Once you hit ten, that date will gray out for availability.

Why do I only notice typos after I hit enter?

I found them in the same place, but some of them disappeared. They are worth it to me because they are not very hard to do.
Marathons are relatively simple, basic pics and they only take a long time if they are badly maintained. When my mobility issues were easier to live and work with, I could easily do 8 - 10 Marathons in a day (as long as it wasn't hot outside). I don't know if there are limits with the current MSC, but there weren't with the previous MSC.
I did probably over 1000 in four states with the last MSC. I had too many eggs in one basket when they lost that contract. I had some fun multi day road trips though. Maybe 150 or so the last month of the quarter.
I only pick up the less desirable locations with no less than a $40 bonus. I picked up one last month with a $65 bonus. I’m letting the ones in my area sit. They have a $10 bonus currently.
